Bernier stopped 39 of 40 shots in the Red Wings win over the Bruins on Sunday. Another terrific performance from Bernier, who has won four of his last six starts (4-2-0) while posting a 1.96 GAA and .937 SV%. It's still hard to trust a goalie who plays for the Red Wings but he's been outstanding and will look to beat the Sabres for the second time in a week tonight.

There is no indication what Tatar is dealing with but a flu bug has been going through the Habs room, so it could be that. Consider Tatar a game-time decision and monitor his status as they hit the ice for warmups at 6:30 PM ET.
There is no word who will replace Lazar on Tuesday because the Sabres often go with 11 forward and seven defensemen, so that could be the strategy tonight.
Hischier required stitches in his knee midway through Saturday's game vs. the Stars and will not play tonight vs. Montreal.

Jack Hughes moves up to the top-line and Joey Anderson makes his season debut with Hischier out.
